    former Ohio U. Bobcat slays BYPoo. sucks that he left my school but sweet to put a beatdown on the mormons.
    Hard to score 88 and still lose by 25.  I don’t know maybe not let a team take 51 threes especially when they are banging them.  
    They didn’t think Moroni would let it happen.

    no fan of Florida but glad they dispatched the team that needed four steps to the winning basket against Colorado St.

    Arkansas? I think they're the lowest seed left now after beating Kansas and St. John's.
    well, yeah, but an SEC team with Calipari is hardly a Cinderella or feel good story (even tho I, for one, do like Cal

    NEVER liked Calipari going back to his UMASS days. 
    at least calipari has always been honest in regard to what he’s about. I doubt you’ll ever hear him spout that “student athlete” BS.
    Cal and honest=HAHA

    honest in that you play for him for a shot at the NBA. No “student athlete” nonsense.

    That’s the coach Cal we’ve come to love.  What a choke.  13 point lead with just over 4 minutes left and lose.  Wow

    Laughable again. (as far as the players having a shot for the NBA) Agree on the No Student Athlete nonsense. 

    The players he got over the years were NBA players/prospects BEFORE they played for him. A very high percentage of them wouldn't have gone to College if it weren't for the one-and-done rule. Most would've went/entered the NBA Draft right out of HS.

    Name me a player he developed that wasn't already an NBA prospect right out of HS?

    He's always been a cheat and that's, at least, going back to his UMASS days. (that's why I laughed at Cal and Honest)

    I also laughed at Cal when Arkansas blew that big lead late and lost the game. Though felt bad for a couple of his players because I saw them play in HS.

    I’m not saying Cal necessarily “developed” them. I’m just saying both coach and player knew what they were doing with each other. education didn’t/doesn’t enter the equation.

    just yesterday I read something about a former FB coach at Tennessee suing the school for wrongful termination. the school came back with some bullshit about integrity and student athletes. Please.

    march madness is tough when basically all the remaining teams are unlikeable for one reason or another.

    impressive. there have been some good games in this tourney but IMO it’s been pretty meh due to the lack of cinderella storylines.

    welcome to college athletics in the NIL/transfer portal era.

    Back in the early 2000’s, before kids, wife and I watched March Madness religiously. Each did our own brackets. Winner got treated to dinner. 

    One year I guessed the entire tournament correct except one game (and that team didn’t advance beyond the next round anyway). Total luck. I was like Diane Chambers and her football pool. It was quite something. I didn’t know shit about the players. We only watched the tournament, no regular season games. 

    Texas sure fucking blew it yesterday.

    The Diane Chambers Football picks.

    That's 40 years old, and I remember that episode like it was yesterday.

    Tennessee wants to set a new NCAA record for missed 3 pointers.
    WTF

    I'm done watching this nonsense for a while. I'll check back in an hour.
